Works for me too. I see a list with bolded links and descriptions and when I view source I see xml starting with an opml tag, instead of html.
edit: and yes opened the link on a new tab

I've never used there.com, but I’m told its “secret sauce,” is browser-applied XSL.
It did for me. The "This is a list of blogs and news sources I follow." part of the page as rendered comes from the XSL file (opml.xsl). The actual list is rendered. I'm did not check whether the XSL was applied correctly, but applied it was.

Can confirm.

Sad, yes, but for me Firefox did download the XML, the XSL, applied the XSL, and rendered the resulting page. I dunno why it didn't for you or GP, but maybe it's an add-on interfering? Do check, and please report, because I'm curious if the issue is add-ons.
